About The Team
The AWS Secrets Management Team owns the end-to-end lifecycle of credentials and secrets for both AWS customers and Amazon's internal infrastructure. We operate within the AWS Identity organization under Platform Experience (PLEX), and our portfolio spans three pillars:
- AWS Secrets Manager (External) — A fully managed service that enables millions of AWS customers to store, rotate, and retrieve database credentials, API keys, and other secrets. We are one of the fastest-growing security services at AWS, with adoption spanning startups to the largest regulated enterprises.
- Odin (Internal) — Amazon's Tier-0 credential distribution system, responsible for delivering secrets to millions of hosts across Amazon and AWS. Odin is foundational infrastructure — when it's down, Amazon is down. We are actively modernizing Odin with production boundary enforcement, AI-driven anomaly detection, and next-generation distribution architecture.
- Secrets Infrastructure — The connective tissue between internal and external — including cross-service integrations, partner ecosystem development, and the shared platform capabilities that power both Odin and Secrets Manager.
